When Maya met Madhur

Maya Angelou and Madhur Jaffrey share a lunch and conversation in 2005. "Maya Angelou and Madhur Jaffrey were born worlds apart, but for both, cooking and sharing food were key to their identities. We invited them for lunch to talk about recipes, love and memory."

I was skeptical based on the framing, which sort of struck me as "a black woman and an Indian woman somehow ended up talking to each other, what a crazy world!!" but it was definitely an interesting conversation to read.

Huh, I never knew that Madhur Jaffrey was an actress.
